India's batters were the big movers in the latest ICC men's player rankings, with Shreyas Iyer breaking into the T20I top ten and Shubman Gill strengthening his position at the top of the one-day list.

Iyer up to seventh

Iyer climbed 18 places to a career-best seventh in the T20I batting rankings after his unbeaten 102 from 43 balls against West Indies in Lucknow. The innings, which included ten fours and six sixes, was his maiden T20I century and came in his 57th innings in the format.
